About

Scribiz converts a video link or file into a transcript, visible on-screen text, a summary, and chapters. It uses captions when they are suitable and listens to the audio when captions are absent or poor. Watch mode reads text such as slides and code, adding timestamps to notes. Results can be exported as SRT, VTT, TXT, Markdown, or JSON. YouTube, direct media links, podcast feeds, and uploads work best; TikTok, X, and Vimeo links are best effort on the web, while Instagram links usually require uploading the file. The web tool accepts files up to 100 MB and about 50 minutes of audio. Scribiz says local processing sends audio chunks rather than a whole video, with a small low-resolution copy sent when Watch needs it. Media is deleted when a job ends; results expire after 24 hours or after 30 days with an account. Its HTTP API creates asynchronous jobs from links or uploads and exposes status, results, and progress events. It has no webhooks, so API users must poll or follow an event stream. A remote MCP server supports Claude, Cursor, and Codex. Free includes 30 caption lookups a day and 10 Listen or Watch minutes a day; a free account also has 30 minutes a month.

Who it is for

Scribiz fits people who need transcripts, summaries, chapters, or screen text from videos, and developers who want asynchronous API jobs. Its exports and MCP server may suit workflows using Claude, Cursor, or Codex.

What is good

  • Exports results in five listed formats.
  • Watch mode timestamps visible text in notes.
  • Free plan includes daily caption lookups.
  • HTTP API exposes job status and progress events.

What to know first

Verdict
